Description: | Although Aelbert Cuyp painted portraits and genre scenes, he is primarily remembered for his peaceful landscapes, bathed in golden light and populated by contented cattle, which celebrated the prosperity of the Dutch Republic. These pictures were widely collected and imitated in Britain in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries; this picture appears to be a later pastiche, probably by a British painter. | Subjects: | landscape; animal (cattle) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Cuyp, Aelbert (Dutch painter and draftsman, 1620-1691) Æ Imitator of | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8619... | Go to resource |
